Call of Duty®: Black Ops, the best selling game ever on the Xbox 360, is ready to blow fans away withthe worldwide release of its third content pack on June 28th,: Call of Duty®: Black Ops Annihilation. Black Ops continues to draw millions of gamers online globally, logging billions of gameplay hours since its launch in November. Fueled by the breakthrough First Strike and Escalation content packs, the blockbuster title is also already the highest selling add-on content in Xbox LIVE history, according to Microsoft. In fact, more gamers play Call of Duty on Xbox LIVE than on any other platform. The newest offering, Annihilation, will launch first on Xbox LIVE and features four new multiplayer maps and a Zombie experience that's sure to keep gamers coming back for more.
"With Annihilation, Black Ops fans will get four exciting and unique multiplayer settings with Hangar 18, Drive-In, Silo and Hazard," said Treyarch Studio Head, Mark Lamia. "Players will also enjoy an all-new Zombies experience, Shangri-La, an exotic and mysterious map filled with deadly traps, dark secrets and innovative gameplay that will challenge even the most daring Zombie hunters."
The pack will hit Xbox Live on June 28 as a timed exclusive. PlayStation 3 owners can expect it a month later. For some reason best known to Bobby Kotick, Activision isn't releasing any screenshots until 6pm (you see, this is what I mean by the obsessive drip-feed of information), but I'll update the story when I'm allowed to show them.
By the way, Activision will also be holding a Double XP weekend, starting Friday July 1.

Cliffside redone as a golf course is an interesting idea....but it definitely will not play the same as in W@W because the AR's are too easy to use to counter a sniper with.....
W@W was PTRS and Betty's and almost guaranteed dogs....cant wait to play it though...
Other maps also look better
One thing has me worried drive in and the more focus on snipers......along with maps around ARs
We see if i get it just for zombies tbh
